The new Discover Spanish School Edition is a technology-based Spanish learning solution created exclusively for teachers and their students. The school version comes complete with a Teacher Dashboard which enables teachers to access printable worksheets, and in addition, easily tracks student progress for the entire year. It also comes equipped with a Student Backpack which directs students to their interactive lessons, podcasts, and a private student blog.
Spanish is the most widely taught language in the US. Studies have shown that students in middle school are at the most opportune time for beginning to learn the Spanish language. Through carefully designed sequential lessons, our aim is to help Spanish teachers instill a foundation of basic conversational skills. The program is equivalent to one full year of high school Spanish, or 2-3 years of middle school Spanish.
The creators of Discover Spanish know that the key to learning a language quickly and easily is through stimulating the senses. Discover Spanish uses the immersion method to bring the sights and sounds of the Spanish language to the student. Combine that with an interactive format, and learning Spanish becomes fun and effective!
